In this talk, I give a review of our work on the exploration of optimal conditions to pin down double parton scattering in four jet production and the LHC in the 7 and 13 TeV data sets, working in the theoretical framework of high energy factorisation. Beside, I elaborate on the first stages of the update of the project, consisting in repeating the investigation by augmenting the theoretical pr ... More

We obtain a pair of second order differential equations in two variables $x$ and $t$ from the coupled DGLAP QCD evolution equations at small $x$ using the standard Taylor series expansion method.To that end we keep terms upto $O(x^2)$.We use the standard assumption about the relationship between the singlet Structure Function and the gluon distributions available in current literature. We then sh ... More

The ATLAS collaboration has carried out a study of diffractive dijet production at 7 TeV pp collisions at the LHC, i.e. events with a hadronic system containing at least two jets in addition to a large region of pseudorapidity devoid of hadronic activity. The data distributions are compared with Monte Carlo models and the rapidity gap survival probability has been estimated in the kinematic re ... More

Abstract -------- In [1] Gaunt and Stirling proposed a set of momentum and quark number sum rules, in close analogy to the well known PDF sum rules, that sensible, transverse momentum integrated, double parton distributions (DPDs) should obey. In their work they argued that these sum rules hold under LO QCD evolution, if one assumes that they are fulfilled at the starting scale. While Gaunt an ... More

We present a complete Monte Carlo program for automatic calculations of hard single- and multi-parton scattering processes within collinear- and k_T-factorization. It can use any k_T-dependent pdfs in the form of a grid file, and collinear pdfs from LHAPDF. It provides all tree-level matrix elements for any processes within the standard model and includes efficient phase space generators. It produ ... More

We combine the IP-Glasma model of Color Glass Condensate with PYTHIA to study bulk observables in small colliding systems at LHC. This framework combines the Classical Yang-Mills dynamics of multi-gluon productions and a scheme of fragmentation based on Lund string model for the production of hadrons. In particular we study the high multiplicity events in which observations are often attributed to ... More

Different distributions of charged-particles and leading charged-particle produced in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy $\sqrt{s} = 13$ TeV are measured in the pseudorapidity range $|\eta| < 2.4$ for charged-particles with a transverse momentum $p_T~>~0.5$ GeV. Measurements are presented for four event categories. The first two categories correspond to inclusive and inelastic e ... More

The centrality-dependence of forward jet production in \pA\ collisions at the LHC has been found to grossly violate the Glauber model prediction in a way that depends on the $x$ in the proton. We argue that this modification pattern provides the first experimental evidence for $x$-dependent proton color fluctuation effects. On average, parton configurations in the projectile proton cont ... More

Our understanding of proton structure and of nuclear interactions at high energy would be advanced significantly with the definitive discovery of the gluon saturation regime. Forward particle production in hadron collisions at RHIC probes gluons at small-x where gluon density is high and expected to reach the saturation regime.

In this contribution, we report on the multiplicity dependence of strange and multi- strange hadron production in pp collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV with the ALICE experiment. An enhanced production of strange and multi-strange hadrons relative to pions is observed for pp and p-Pb collisions where a large charged-particle multiplicity density is reached. The results in small systems are compared ... More

The installation of scintillating pad detectors (Herschel), bracketing the LHCb detector along the beamline, have significantly enhanced the LHCb sensitivity to central exclusive production. Additionally, dedicated triggers during the early measurement period of Run 2 produced an extended CEP dataset. A summary of results from Run 1 as well as early results from Run 2 will be shown.

MPI models implemented in Monte Carlo generators typically rely on the minijet cross section formula derived from the LO collinear factorization supplemented with a $p_T$ cutoff, which slowly grows with the energy. The natural question is whether such a cutoff can be explained (or dynamically generated) from an approach which goes beyond the leading power. One of approaches venturing beyond the le ... More

We discuss diffractive production of open charm and bottom mesons and dijet at the LHC. The differential cross sections for single- and central-diffractive mechanisms for $c \bar c $and $b \bar b$ pair production and dijets are calculated in the framework of the Ingelman-Schlein model corrected for absorption effects. In this approach one assumes that the pomeron has a well defined partonic stru ... More

During the last years collective effects in small systems, like p-p and p-A, have been under discussion. Evidence of flow-like patterns has been found in p-p collisions experimentally. Based on this results the proposal to use hydrodynamics to describe small systems, like in A-A collisions, looks tempting, but, some other mechanisms, among them prominently, Color Reconnection (CR), has shown colle ...

At transverse momenta that are large compared with nonperturbative scales but much smaller than the hardest scale in the process, DPS can be described by TMD factorisation with transverse-momentum dependent DPDs computed in terms of collinear ones.

Monte Carlo event generators used at LHC are inspired by QCD and rely on phenomenological models where perturbative QCD cannot be used, e.g. for the description of the underlying event and hadronisation.

Soft gluon exchange is an essential part of the dynamics in DPS processes. In processes where factorisation holds, the effects of this exchange are described by soft factors, which give rise to Sudakov logarithms. We discuss progress made in the understanding of the colour dependence of these factors. This leads to significant simplifications both in collinear and in TMD factorisation for D ... More

Same-sign W boson pair production is one of the most promising channels for measuring properties of double parton scattering (DPS) at the LHC.
